Default 99 A4 Tuning?

I have a 99 A4 with Halltech induction system, MSD wires, NGK irridium plugs, 160 T-stat, Magnaflow X-pipe and exhaust. I also have the hpertech power programer III!! Can anyone let me know where I should set the rev. limiter and shift points 1-2, 2-3, 3-4 at with out doing any damage??

I would leave the rev. limiter alone. The increases I have implemented are as follows: 1-2 shift +1 2-3 shift +1 3-4 shift +0. I have found that any extra increases and you will hit the rev limiter.

I currently have the rev. limiter set at 5800rpm, is this where it needs to be?
